Anacostia Community Boathouse

The Anacostia Community Boathouse Association (ACBA) is dedicated to fostering safe and environmentally responsible recreation on the Anacostia River by maintaining a community boathouse located at 11th and O Streets in Southeast Washington, DC. Founded on a vigorous spirit of volunteerism, the Anacostia Community Boathouse Association has been an integral part of the growth of Washington’s rowing and paddling community—while working to create a premier center for rowing and paddling training and competition. ACBA members have been actively living the District’s Anacostia Waterfront Initiative for nearly two decades: Through many years of hard work and dedication, ACBA’s members have transformed an underutilized facility into a thriving rowing and paddlesport center—at no cost to the city.
